well, our present packs a punch, president trump came out swinging his first state of the union address of his second term, taking a blow torch to left-wing policies and the democrats who support them, as well. now while touting one policy win after another, buckle up, the whole thing ran about an hour and 48 minutes. >> our nation is back. bigger, better, richer, and stronger than ever before. this is the golden age of america. today our border is secure, our spirit is restored, inflation is plummeting, incomes are rising fast, the roaring economy is roaring like never before, and our enemies are scared, our military and police are stacked, and america is respected again. they caused and created the increased prices that all of our citizens had to endure. you caused that problem. you caused that problem.

they knew their statements were a lie. they knew. they knew their statements were a dirty rotten live. >> kayleigh: but here was the biggest moment. president trump sending the squad into a frenzy by simple he asking the democrats to stand for this. >> if you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support. the first duty of the american government is to protect american citizens, not illegal aliens. [cheers and applause] you should be ashamed of yourself, not standing up. you should be ashamed of yourself. they are blocking the removal of these people out of our country, and you should be ashamed. >> kayleigh: and it gets worse for the democrats. they would not even stand for this 80-20 issue. >> surely we can all agree no state can be allowed to rip children from their parents arms and transition them to a new gender against the parents' will.

who would believe that we would be talking about this. we must ban it, and we must ban it immediately. look, nobody stands up. these people are crazy. i'm telling you. they are crazy. >> kayleigh: you know, jesse, i wish the democrats would have taken the fetterman approach. suit up, stand up when appropriate, sit and listen. >> jesse: but even if they sit, trump still owns them. i love state love state of the union trump. i think it is better than raleigh trump, better than sit down interview trump, even better than gg showed trump. this guy shows this format because there is a physical division right in the middle of the chamber. so he creates a moment, and then exploits the moment to get a reaction from the democrats, and the reaction proves his point. he accentuates it so deliciously that the democrats are baited

into going where they don't want to go, and then he says, "see, i told you so." you are having, remit officials transition children's behind parents back and the democrats aren't saying no? so they fall for it because he has them there. there is no moderator. there is no media filter. it is the trump show, and he is in total control, kayleigh, that's why they didn't go. that's why 70 played hooky. because they don't want to be a part of it. because he merchandises their faces or their yelling or their canes or whatever the hell they do. it's also a great format for the president because the republicans are just better looking. all of the cutaways to these democrats, it's sad. it is a sad look. our cabinet is more attractive. the trump family is more attractive. i'm sorry. it's just the truth. also trump loves awards.

it's become an award show now. you get a medal of freedom, you get a medal of honor, this person got a tax refund, she got fertility drugs, it's like him hosting an award show now, which is great, and that is why it is so fun, because he is a great storyteller. this is the kind of speech that gives a president momentum. this is the speech that gives the president legs, because the distinction between him and the democrats was so clear, and now you can see for the first time all of these wins that he can now take this momentum and then drive it home over and over and over again. everyone is talking about the speech, the hockey, the democrats going crazy. their problem is if they do clap for common sense stuff, then trump looks powerful. and persuasive on television. and then their base gets angry. and if they sit there like this when trump is saying normal things and everybody agrees with, everybody watching at home

thinks the democrats are crazy. so that's the problem. he just makes the points so forcefully, the democrats are just sitting ducks. >> kayleigh: yeah, it is a catch-22 for him. dana, the scene and snapped poll showed at the beginning of the speech, 54% of viewers thought we are heading in the right direction, now 64% by the end, so does he make that shift that carries over into the midterms? >> dana: i mean, i don't know. for a lot of people, nobody even remembers that he gave a prime-time address from the oval office about affordability two months ago. >> jesse: he did? >> dana: exactly. he did -- >> kayleigh: and hours. >> jesse: oh. >> dana: so, but for tonight, for a few days, for may be momentum going forward, there wasn't a lot of legislative ideas put forward, and that's fine. what he did do is he spotlighted people, rather than policies so much. policy prickled and but that doesn't make for a good show. what did make for a good show was actually seeing the people who he generally seems to care

about, keep in touch with, want to help through their grief, or want to celebrate for their accomplishment, and book ending it with our b block is going to be about the hockey team and we are going to get there but then at the end you have the 100-year-old man who is getting the medal of honor -- medal of freedom, excuse me. >> kayleigh: congressional medal of honor, right? >> dana: and the first lady is going to provide him with that. i also thought it was quite remarkable, you had this venezuelan political prisoner who comes in, surprises his niece, and then they leave. and he says have a good time. so yes, it did become a little bit of a show. i don't know how long it lasts in terms of the good vibes because what really matters after state of the union, i believe, is the follow-through, so the cabinet now has a lot of work to do. he gave them a few things that were of suggestion, like on prescription drugs, for example, so can you go out and sell that? i think the big thing they're going to continue to talk about is the big, beautiful bill. that was the one big huge piece

of legislation that is starting to take hold now and people will really start to see that in april when the tax returns start to come in and they will be bigger than they have been before, and you really can't win the mid-terms in february. you have to kind of assessed that more in like april or may. >> kayleigh: end of tax on tips, no tax on overtime, that will all be very telling. one-shot moment that will last, i can assure you jessica, republicans will make it last. the statement was made: the first duty of the american government is to protect american citizens not illegal aliens, stand if you agree with this, why didn't democrats stand. >> jessica: well, i think to jesse's point, that they didn't want to play into the trump show. you are between a rock and a hard place. i was thinking in that room, my quads would have gotten the most insane work out because i would have been halfway. i think the state of the union has far less impact than it used to. i mean, these things happen, and as dana said, then we kind of move on past them. the last state of the union for joe biden matters a lot because it was the proof of life video,

right? so we had that. so many democrats felt like they had leeway to go and do something else, and leader jeffries said that was fine. i think that we should institute a rule that any guest of either party, as long as it is not a totally partisan pick, you stand for them, and you applaud. if it is someone who served the country, someone who something terrible happened to them or their family, no matter what the president has said about them, like there was no reason that president trump had to lie about who killed that poor ukrainian refugee on the north carolina train, said that she was killed by someone who is here illegally. she was killed by an american citizen who was from charlotte, north carolina. that's unnecessary but that family deserves applause, no matter what is going on, and i think we should institute that. in terms of jesse's analysis of the evening, there were a lot of people who did not feel the same

way. navigator research was doing dials throughout the whole thing. president trump went out there, went through his greatest hits, and did not do what his advisors had hoped that he would do, which is to say "i feel your pain, this is a work in process. we had some wins but there's more to do." so they showed that the dials went down when trump mentioned the golden age, that prices are down, america is winning, tariffs, which are just a big illegal tax on american obam obama. lots of lies. you know, but the investment and what the costs are doing, more americans working today, et cetera. but the most important thing

that he said, and democrats are laser focused on this, is that he said democrats cheat. the cheating is rampant in our elections. their policy is so bad that the only way they can get elected is to cheat. that is laying the groundwork for subverting a free and fair election. he's already said i'm sending i.c.e. to the polls, they are going to have poll watchers, there are teams of lawyers -- >> jesse: i thought there wasn't going to be an election. that's what gavin newsom said. >> jessica: jesse, just doesn't matter. it will be a january 6th redux. >> jesse: it doesn't matter. they are going to have the midterm. >> jessica: right, but if it is close, if it is not the 30 seats that some people think is possible, if it's just a few seats, mike johnson held congress out of her seat for two months. he was an architect of january 6th. do you think that that man is going to seek these people once trump is out there saying we can only win if we cheat. >> jesse: it's why we need voter i.d. >> kayleigh: and i think you are taking them out of context. >> jessica: no, i'm not. >> kayleigh: greg, i want to

get to you, but he was lang the ground work for the save america act. greg? >> greg: yeah, i was just checking on something. i don't know if trump lied about the killer of iryna, i'm not sure about that but at least we know that he knew her name. i can't remember -- what -- >> jessica: everyone was upset about that. >> greg: i'm talking about laken riley. what do you call her? the only reason why you guys know about these victims is because we have to throw it in your face. and you notice it when he makes a mistake. oh, my god! he lied about the heinous killer. oh. who is the villain here? i have to give credit where credit is due. at least these democrats, you know, showed up. there were 70, like jesse said, that were missing. i don't know where they were, at a red roof inn plan, i don't know, quarters with kamala. but they work for us. that's their job. like, what else do you do?

you know, oh, they have other things. they see enough of trump. b.s., man. that would be like me skipping "the five" because i found at shannon bream is in for dana. just because i don't get along with somebody doesn't mean i just skip -- oh, i'm not going to do the show because -- no, i get paid to be here. that's actually -- the fact that they think they can do that shows you how little respect they have for the american people. it's almost two hours long, this thing. i felt like trump is like a maitre d' at a restaurant who is so proud of the specials that he's going to go through them whether you like or not. i got the veal scallopini, the lobster thermo door, the quail surf and turf, if you need to lose some weight, cobb salad, and ilhan, some goat on the menu. proud of everything and the consequence of having so many successes. it is easier to have one or two or and biden's case have none and just lie and he has had a mind-numbing amount, the crime,

border, foreign policy, incredible. the angrier and more sullen the dems are, the more effective and successful trump's policies are come almost like watching the carnival game where you take a large mallet and hit the lever and it rings a bell. it's like anything trump says, his success is measured by this explosion of envy and resentment that you see on the other side. every instance, dems become like the villain in the climax of a movie where the hero saves the town and gets the girl and the evil conspirator is glaring from a police car window. sometimes at the end he will smile and go you know what, maybe he is right after all, but they never will. trump has figured out the secret sauce. if you want to do america right and own the lives, just succeed. because the dems hate your success and will reveal their dark hearts by not applauding the good things you do, so you help the country, only libs, it's like a win-win.

i have to point out ilhan omar. she repulses me. and i'm trying to find out why because she's not unattractive. she has an unusual amount and kind of anger. she has no right to that level of rage in the united states of america. the country who gave her corrupt ass a new life. it's not like she is a homeless vietnam vet who can't get services and should be enraged if the government. she should be kissing the ground she walks on instead of spitting on it. their anger also reminds me of the radical who given power would destroy you. she would show no mercy for you. if you were below her. like the look on her face is somebody who would step on your neck instead of giving you a hand. and that is not the kind of person we should have in our leadership. it's not the type of person we should have in this country. and if we find out that she screwed up on her immigration stuff, she's got to go. >> kayleigh: she should be

you're going to win big. you're going to win bigger than ever. and to prove that point, to prove that point, here with us tonight is a group of winners who just made the entire nation proud. the men's gold medal olympic hockey team. come on in. [chanting "usa"] that's the first time i've ever seen them get up. [laughter] and actually not all of them did get up. >> dana: but some folks in the media were not feeling the patriotic spirit. >> our olympic athletes. they should not be being used as political props, though, and frankly allow themselves to be used as political props. it is very clear why the president did this. what is unclear to me is why the men's hockey team allowed themselves to be utilized in this particular capacity. >> dana: greg, i don't think they felt like they were being utilized. jesse and i had a great opportunity to meet a couple of

them that ron bret baier's show last night. they are making america so happy and they are so nice. >> greg: things can be a prop and still be awesome. like this mark that i have. like the smug that i have. but something is a prop when it doesn't describe a truth or it describes itself to some kind of ideology. there is nothing dishonest about this patriotism. everybody loves this team. there is nothing dishonest about embracing an american victory. we can all do that. i did enjoy the glum faces among those who couldn't join in but i get it because they aren't the ones in charge. they wish they could do it. but the fact that, see, democrats, they use more props than carrot top. happy birthday, by the way. did you see who ro khanna brought to? >> dana: no. >> greg: haley robinson. do you know who haley robson -- this was his prop. he pretended she was a victim of epstein when in fact she was connected to epstein because she

worked with him. she would recruit young girls at $200 a pop in rural areas, and she would compare herself to heidi fleiss. that is not a victim. but ro khanna thought, well, she is attached to epstein. i'm going to bring her in and that's going to -- that is an actual prop. so we didn't invent this stuff. the dems have been doing it for a while. he should be super ashamed of this because he also did, what, there were four innocent guys come he mentioned it on the floor of the congress, but he believes that props are preferable over truth, and that is actually a true prop. i give props to that prop, the hockey team. >> dana: there was this headline in "the new york times," jesse: the u.s. men's olympic hockey team won gold and then lost the room. i guess there are people that are unhappy. i don't think -- the team -- i guess it is about the women's team -- >> jesse: they are all writers

at "the new york times." let me tell you a story about lenny. >> dana: who is lenny? >> jesse: lenny scott neck. he was an official, 28 years old in washington, d.c., 1982. there was a plane crash, boom, went down in the potomac. lenny dove into the water, saved a woman, rescued her from drowning, two weeks later ronald reagan invites lenny to the state of the union, tells the story, he stands up, and everybody claps. and that began the pattern of people bringing lennys to the state of the union, and for four decades, both parties have clapped for each side's lennys. until trump was president, then it was like the black kid with cancer, then the hockey team, that has always been the history of the american people coming together and clapping for these people. we have not changed. the democrats have tds, that is the problem. >> dana: and it is wednesday,

not even tds tuesday. >> jessica: thursday? >> jesse: that is dei thursday. >> jessica: i apologize. i thought it was a great moment. i was glad to see the bipartisan clapping. i remain super excited about the men and women's hockey teams. i do think that that phone call and the joke, as if we are still in the 1950s, did not hit right, and i think that it is your job as the most important person in the world, the leader of our country, to congratulate all the winners and to not single out one team for it. he said that they are coming. i don't think there has been any official confirmation that they will. but it is clear that there is a real impact on the players themselves. jeremy swayman, who was on the team come he said we should have reacted differently. we know that we are so excited for the women's team, we have so much respect for the women's team, and women won more gold medals at this olympic then the

men did. they won eight of the 12 gold medals, and 61% of all of the medals overall and the sixth consecutive olympics were female athletes have won more metals than the men. so there is a reason they should have been up there with them but they should have gotten -- >> dana: the women -- >> greg: why are you white lighting for strong women? >> jessica: and justice planning to how people could be offended by this -- >> dana: but if -- >> jessica: you think it's completely -- >> greg: losers. they are not themselves the actual athletes, people who are offended by something that happens to somebody else -- >> jessica: have you listened to every interview with athletes? i saw one of them were she didn't sound too happy. >> greg: i'm too busy helping the poor. >> dana: one thing i think is interesting, and i know that the press tries, they sat on their hands, they didn't clap, even if they really wanted to, because they have cameras on them, the going to get in trouble, they are not supposed to clap for republicans or democrats, but i feel bad, they could have

clapped for the hockey team. >> kayleigh: stand and clap. presumably they are not clapping because they don't want to be perceived as on the left or the right, but presume ugly you are all on team usa if you are an american reporter so stand and clap. but the press sits around, and i'm not saying all of them because some of them are probably following long-standing tradition i didn't want to stand, but for some of them, like "the new york times" headline writer, what are you doing? you have politicized these young men. these young men, think about the 48 hours they've had. they win the gold. they are chugging pure in the locker room with the fbi director, which they think is amazing until the press moves in and criticizes them, tn they go to miami and singing "courtesy of the red, white, and blue," toby keith, then go to the white house and are criticized because they walk out to "free bird" and go to the oval office and meet the commander in chief, leader of the free world. these guys have been having fun and i love one of them said when approached, why are you also negative? i mean, they are stunned by the press. they are having fun. it's contagious. it's joyful. it's exciting. stand and clap. >> dana: and they are back to work tonight.

i think there is game. >> greg: isn't that the recurring narrative the last couple years? fun versus people who don't want to have fun. >> kayleigh: yes, bingo. >> dana: all right, and girls just want to have fun. coming up next, giraffes, frogs, and abigail spanberger? what? the democratic response to the state of the union was all over the place. ♪ ♪

>> [indistinct] [singing] >> tonight i defy trump and his authoritarian project by standing in joyful, radical, peaceful resistance with the portland frog brigade! >> and to press this country -- >> go trump! >> jesse: but somehow the clowns in the liberal media were even worse. watch. >> he ended up slowing down a lot, and particularly slowing down markedly from long stretches of the speech that were essentially a sort of violence porn. >> i was physically ill watching it, more than usual. >> he utilized almost these game show type moments. >> there was the gross, violent pornography part of it.

>> i was struck, frankly, pretty boring. >> jesse: can you describe what they are talking about violence porn, jessica? >> kayleigh: [laughs] >> greg: i have some on my phone. >> jessica: stop sending me that stuff. you know how trump, he likes to describe crimes and brutal stuff in detail, and it gets a little gory, so they called it violence porn. i thought abigail spanberger did a really great job. and she was short and to the point, she was in colonial williamsburg, important setting, and she did. let me ask the american people three questions. is the president working to make your life more affordable for you and your family? the american public say know about this. number two question, some people would say yes to this one, i wouldn't, is the president working to keep americans safe at home and abroad? some would say yes. three, is the president working for you? and survey after survey showed that 70% of the merrick and public say that donald trump has the wrong priorities and that he is not working on the issues that matter which is affordability.

he is focused on other things. i thought it was really smart framing. she talks about corruption, that's obviously a theme. the democrats talk about he has made $4 billion since getting back in office. i thought it was a great rebuttal. >> jesse: okay. what about you? did you think -- forget about spanberger, we are going to leave her for dana. what about the frogs? >> kayleigh: yeah, the frogs, those were fun to watch. the frog brigade, i had the unfortunate experience before joining you, tuning into this live, and the first thing i see, i think it was defiant stop something, was jon tester, a former -- shouting "impeach the" this is indeed a former united states senator in a frog hat. then i see the frog brigade, which you are looking at. what does this even mean? the frog brigade? it looks like you are watching "sesame street." that i thought to myself, who the democrats need to win our young men. young men flock to

president trump. is this what the joe rogan crowd is going to be attracted to? i think not. i think you have set yourself back a few steps to putting these and the frog brigade out instead of someone who can appeal to young men who you need to win desperately. >> jesse: and what was with the joy reid singing, greg? i didn't understand what was going on there. >> greg: i think that's a good question. but first i want to just address those questions that jessica said was a good framing. there was no context to it. each sentence should begin, compared to a democrat. when a man is being chased by a bear, you don't have to outrun the bear. just your spouse. >> jesse: [laughs] >> greg: and as long as you are against democrats, you don't have to be perfect, you just have to be better than them, and that's easy. joy reid is now singing for spare change. and it's amazing how once the power of the mainstream media, the corrupt press is removed, you see where these people naturally rest in the scheme of

things, whether it's a cost, don lemon, joy reid, katie couric, john harwood, they all -- you see them for what they are and it is a reminder that the mainstream media left at you for pointing out the ideological bent of this talent. no cover these are objective journalists. they are professionals. but then when you strip away the actual power that they have, oh, man, they are as left-wing as you will come. and then onto spanberger. i will take a giraffe or a frog over spanberger, and i'll tell you why. their costumes are obvious. she pulled off a biden. she won by wearing the costume of the sensible moderate. you know, but once she got in, she stripped off the joe manchin skin suit and revealed the 2026 wokester. there is nothing she objects to, from trans-ing kids to targeting i.c.e. i'd rather have a frog for a governor than her, at least you can kiss a frog and maybe it

will turn into something else. >> dana: a prince, right? >> greg: or a princess. straight as they come, dana. >> jesse: somehow feel you were responsible for abigail spanberger. >> kayleigh: me? >> jesse: a little bit. >> dana: i gave jesse credit, was it just last night? it is so true, they find these democratic women who served in the military or serve, she was a cia officer, and then they say oh, this is the person we should run because this is a person who can win enough democrats and win independents so they can pull a coalition together. and on day one in office they will do things like say we will not cooperate with i.c.e., we are going to raise your taxes, we are going to do x, y, and z. the best thing that happened to her last night was it was utterly forgettable. a lot of these things go badly and you remember them. >> jesse: true. >> dana: and it's hard to recover from them. some people do very, very well recovering from -- >> jesse: like rubio.

snowball fights or organizing snowball fights. >> jessica: dana, i want to come to you on this. nypd jessica tisch has called it criminal and disgraceful what was going on in washington square park. what is your feeling? >> dana: when i first saw it, at first, like when they were hitting the cars, that doesn't look great but also harmless. than i saw this video and thought that's horrible. what really bothers me about it, when the police officers are super dignified and walking along and greg is going to explain more to me but i was asked today by a friend, why didn't they fight back, and this is somebody who grew up somewhere else in another country and i said well, because it is a snowball. you have to be respectful. no, if you think your life is in danger, you can push back if you are a police. i said yes, i know. so maybe that is where all of this comes down. the other thing that really bothers me is it is like a mob, and none of those other guys that are throwing snowballs stand up and say hey, don't do that, stop.

not to the cops, guys. none of them, they all went after the cops, and that was very chilling. so the mayor did better with street cleanup, and then he absolutely fell on his face on this one. >> jessica: greg, you have something to explain to us about fighting back? >> greg: i don't know where she got the idea but i will. i wish we could stop expanding the category of teens. these are like adult men who should be working. hey, let's have a snowball fight. and then they get high and that is what they do because that is what we have in new york. there is nothing, in my opinion, there is nothing more winterly fun than facial lacerations. but i was thinking about this question. let's say you are not a cop and you are walking with your mother or your wife or whoever, and this happens. you know, there is a bunch of strange men, maliciously throwing snowballs at you. what actually can you do if a snowball isn't construed as a

weapon? it's not a knife or a gun, but it could have rocks or ice in it. how do you do it so that you don't go to jail? or you are not the one that is guilty of something? so i decided a snowball fight is like sex. to be acceptable, it has to be consensual. and clearly this wasn't consensual. so in a situation where they are attacking you, you have a right to respond also in a nonconsensual manner, which means you grab their buts or their balls and you twist as hard as you can. if they didn't ask for my consent, why should i ask for theirs? >> jessica: i'm desperately afraid of going to jesse. [laughter] i figure he's going to go back to the sex if i go to kayleigh, so go ahead. >> jesse: sometimes no means yes, no, i'm kidding. sometimes no means no. >> dana: all the time.

every time. >> jesse: listen, a bunch of kids were having a snowball fight in the park. >> dana: they are not kids. >> jesse: people were throwing snowballs at each other, all right? and the cops walked right in the middle of it. what do you think is going to happen? they are going to throw the snowballs at the cops. >> dana: what? >> jesse: okay? it's disrespectful. it's not a nice thing to do to the cops. the cops handled it perfectly. but if i was a cop and there's a bunch of people throwing snowballs at each other in the middle of a park, i would not walk right in the middle of the snowball fight. and i'm sorry they got facial lacerations, and i hope they recover. again. >> dana: can you get them an appointment at that spot? >> jesse: which one? >> jessica: do you think this causes further damage to the relationship in tween mamdani and the police, which has been tense? >> kayleigh: i saw mamdani giving a live press conference, school be in tomorrow, feel free to throw snowballs at me.
